Simple food today did me well...for breakfast toast topped with a slice of Maasdam, and some coffee with Chinese soya beans added, and that was fine to start my working day...lunch is almost always rice, but today I went head first for good old English and made myself some sausage, beans, and fried egg with milk! (My friend said that nobody drinks milk anymore...but I dispute that.)
I enjoy my food very much these days, because I chop and change regularly, eat simply, and sometimes not at all, so when I do cook, or eat out, it is seldom extravagant, but always nice.
I can't abide waste, and worse than that, seeing people at buffet restaurants, scooping up termite nest-sized portions, only to leave most of it. WASTEful.
Only as much as is necessary is my motto.
Last night my gregarious student, looked upon my friend, the hedgehog, as a meal, and made a lunge for him...thank goodness I interceded and saved the spiked visitor.
Has anyone tried balot ![]()
